Chapter 281 Ancient Fight

"Swish!"

The jungle made a swish sound, and a group of people slowly walked out. There were more than a hundred people. They were Thor and Count Engel. A day ago, Ryan returned with Thor's Knights.

With Thor's Knights and Count Engel's Knights, the number of people finally exceeded a hundred.

Compared with before Thor left, Marshall and others did not change much.

Although the strength has improved slightly, it is only a small improvement.

This is also normal. Although Thor has given a lot of support, these people have not obtained the essence of life. In fact, their talents have not changed much. The improvement of resources alone is naturally not so obvious.

However, even so, Count Engel couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Marshall and others.

Especially Marshall, who was only at the peak of the Great Knight when he left with Thor. Now he has not only officially broken through the Great Knight and entered the Earth Knight, but has obviously reached the late stage of the Earth Knight.

At the same time, the people in the Knights of Thor are similar.

The fifty-four knights that Thor brought this time were almost the elite of the entire Eagle Ridge, and naturally they were also the people that Earl Engel had arranged for Thor before.

Earl Engel was also familiar with these people.

Unexpectedly, the strength of these people was also rapidly improved.

However, after looking at Thor again, Earl Engel was somewhat relieved.

Going to become a pioneer lord, Thor's transformation was the most tremendous, even surpassing everything.

In just three years, Thor is now comparable to the peak of the general sky knight, even facing the half-step sanctuary is not much inferior.

This can be said to be a miracle.

In comparison, Thor's knights are nothing.

Earl Engel could only sigh.

After everyone gathered, it took only one day to finally reach the core.

"The gathering place that Grand Duke Le Pu'er said should be twenty miles ahead, and it should be enough to arrive today."

Earl Engel spoke, and at this moment he couldn't help but let out a long breath of turbid air.

To be honest, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he felt the light balls approaching quickly.

After all, although his strength has improved, the entire Dressrosa family has not. Once they encounter a powerful family and a conflict breaks out, the consequences are almost self-evident.

The Half-Step Saint is very strong, but the nobles who can get close to here are probably all half-step saints.

And after removing the Half-Step Saint, Earl Engel knew that the entire Dressrosa family might be weaker than the dukes of the major kingdoms, let alone the top marquises of the major kingdoms.

In this way, once a conflict breaks out, the casualties will be huge.

But fortunately, it didn't happen after all.

After approaching, those light balls consciously chose to stay away.

In the end, they came all the way here without any danger.

"Twenty miles?"

Thor nodded, and at this moment he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This time, if nothing unexpected happens, he will see the real top nobles of the entire continent, except for the two empires.

There are two empires on the continent. Under the jurisdiction of the two empires, there are countless kingdoms and countless principalities. In particular, the number of principalities is as numerous as the sands of the Ganges.

Even the number of kingdoms is not small.

However, those who can participate are all the most powerful families in the kingdoms.

Thor still has some expectations for these powerful families.

First, he wants to see if there will be new daily intelligence updated with the interweaving with these powerful families, and second, he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to see what level of strength he has reached at the moment.

The group moved forward again.

Until the night gradually fell.

Thor and Count Engel and his group finally arrived at the gathering place.

At this moment, there are already many knights on guard at the gathering place.

As soon as Thor, Count Engel and others approached, they attracted the attention of the alert knights.

Engel immediately stepped forward and told the situation.

"Please wait!"

A knight of the earth spoke respectfully, and looked at Count Engel with some surprise, but he did not dare to neglect it and hurried to report.

Not long after.

This Earth Knight returned quickly.

"Lord Count Engel, please."

The Earth Knight spoke respectfully, and then led Thor and his party to the center.

About a few minutes later.

Thor finally saw the Tulip Noble Alliance.

When their eyes converged, Thor's brows could not help but rise.

Because at this moment, he could feel a huge pressure. There were five extremely powerful auras in the entire Noble Alliance, and even he felt a sense of pressure from this aura.

At the same time, Anna beside him couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Anna!"

Thor spoke softly.

"It's okay, Master."

Anna spoke softly, then shook her head.

"Karenina!"

Thor looked at Anna shaking her head, and he understood what was going on. His eyes couldn't help but look at the figures in the distance. The eye-catching noble symbol was obviously the Karenina family.

As a former member of the Karenina family, Thor didn't know what Anna had encountered, but it was obvious that the result would not be too wonderful, otherwise Anna would not choose to escape from the Karenina family.

However, since Anna didn't want to say it, Thor wouldn't force it.

His right hand gently grasped Anna's palm, comforting the other party's heart.

Then he looked at his father.

"Father."

Thor spoke softly.

"Let's go, we'll go!"

Count Engel couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then spoke softly.

"Okay!"

Thor nodded.

Then the group continued to move forward.

"Hahaha, Count Engel this way!"

At this moment, the voice of the old Duke Lepuer sounded with a smile.

"Grand Duke Lepuer, I haven't seen you for many days, and you are still as graceful as ever."

Count Engel also smiled and spoke.

"Hahaha, it's true that I haven't seen you for many days."

"Come, Count Engel, let me introduce you. This one is the Duke of Karenina's previous generation, and this one is the Duke of the Skodar family's previous generation."

"As for these three, you should also know them."

As everyone approached, the old Duke Lepuer couldn't help but smile and spoke, and then introduced the people around him to Count Engel.

"Count Engel, we have heard a lot of legends about you from Grand Duke Lepuer these days."

"First meeting."

The old Duke Karenina and the old Duke Skodar also smiled and spoke.

"Yes, Earl Engel, you are really well hidden."

Marquis Solo also smiled and said

Accompanying the introduction of the old Duke Lepuer, several people greeted Earl Engel one after another.

His eyes were looking at Earl Engel and his group.

When they found Earl Engel's pitifully small knight group, everyone couldn't help but frowned slightly, but soon they felt the domain aura of Earl Engel, and the two old dukes couldn't help but show a touch of joy on their faces.

For them, it didn't matter that Earl Engel's knight group was weaker, as long as Earl Engel was indeed a half-step sanctuary.

"Meet Grand Duke Karenina, Grand Duke Skodar, Marquis Mackendi, Marquis Ivano, and Marquis Solo!"

Earl Engel smiled and said, he naturally understood the attitudes of several people.

But he didn't care too much.

The three top marquises, at this moment, the Dressrosa family really didn't need to pay too much attention to them.

With his breakthrough of the Half-Step Saint Realm, he will surely be able to enter the Saint Realm in the future. The three top marquises will not pose any threat to the entire Dressrosa family.

As for the three duke families, there are not too many conflicts between them.

"Come on, Earl Engel, we just need to discuss the next matters."

"Let's go!"

"Sophia, you go and settle Earl Engel's Knights."

The old Duke Le Puer smiled and nodded, then spoke to a figure next to him.

"Yes!"

The figure responded respectfully.

Then he walked out and led Thor and his group to another place.

Earl Engel nodded to Thor and others.

Thor and his group followed this figure and began to go to another place.

At this moment, the entire open space has been repaired, and even the residence of Earl Engel and his group has been clearly arranged.

There are rows of wooden houses.

"Everyone, just rest here."

"If you need anything, just go to the west and call me."

Sophia said with a smile.

"Thank you."

Thor nodded with a smile.

"No need to thank me, I won't bother you anymore."

Sophia nodded with a smile and left.

Waiting for him to leave, the group quickly moved in.

This open space is quite large, and there are many houses. It is naturally no problem for more than a hundred people to live there, and it is not a big problem to even accommodate seven or eight hundred people.

After they settled down, a few moments later, a knight sent a lot of food.

Everyone started eating immediately.

On the other side.

Count Engel was taken into a large room by Grand Duke Lepuer and others.

They began to discuss the next matters.

Time passed slowly.

When the night fell completely.

After the stars gradually embellished the sky.

Count Engel's figure returned again.

As soon as he came back, Count Engel immediately came to where Thor was.

"Father?"

Thor was a little surprised to see Count Engel coming.

"Thor, I'm afraid there will be some trouble next."

Count Engel looked at Thor, sighed, and spoke softly.

"What's wrong, father?"

Thor was a little surprised.

"Currently, the sixteen kingdoms' noble alliances should be participating in the final battle. Yesterday, these sixteen noble alliances decided to fight in the form of ancient gladiatorial combat, and the ownership of the law fragments."

Count Engel spoke in a deep voice, slowly telling the information he had obtained from Grand Duke Le Pu'er.

"Ancient gladiatorial combat?"

Thor raised his eyebrows and was a little surprised.

He knew something about ancient gladiatorial combat.

This is a way of noble fighting from ancient times.

When two nobles find irreconcilable contradictions, they will initiate a gladiatorial fight.

The so-called gladiatorial fight is that both sides send the same number of people and the same existence to fight in a fixed place.

The winning party can get everything from the other party, and the losing party will lose everything.

"Yes, it is the ancient gladiatorial fight."

"At present, there are sixteen noble alliances, and it is decided that each noble alliance will send ten people. The sixteen noble alliances will fight against each other, and the winners will fight against the winners, and the losers will fight against the losers. The winning party can get half of the law fragments of the losing party. The final winner, all families must pay ten law fragments."

"At present, there are six noble alliances that are stronger than our Tulip Kingdom Noble Alliance. In addition to the Purple Gold Flower Kingdom, the Macedonian Kingdom, the Shenmu Kingdom and the Purple Gold Flower Kingdom are similar. The Sachi Kingdom and the Green Kingdom are a little weaker, but they also have six half-step sanctuaries. The strongest one should be the Sera Kingdom, and there are currently ten known half-step sanctuaries."

Earl Engel spoke slowly.

Thor's expression tightened when he heard Earl Engel's words.

Even though he knew that the Tulip Kingdom was not the most powerful kingdom, and could only be considered a kingdom in the middle and upper reaches, he did not expect that there were as many as six kingdoms that were more powerful than the Tulip Kingdom.

These were six kingdoms.

Gladiator fight.

Fighting two by two.

Eight people who won the first round, and eight people who lost.

These eight people will continue to fight.

If you are unlucky, lose again and again, and then add the final winner's gains, the law fragments you get will almost be completely swept away, and may not even be enough.

"Father, what if the law fragments are not enough?"

Thor took a deep breath, and soon thought of it and asked.

"Must give!"

Earl Engel just said it lightly.

But this sentence is enough.

In other words, no matter whether you have enough or not, and no matter what method you use, the law fragments you need to pay must be in full.

If not enough, then go get it again.

This is the rule of the Kingdom War, and it is a rule set by the alliance of nobles from the sixteen kingdoms. No one has the right to refuse.

What puzzled Thor was how the relatively weaker families among the sixteen families were willing to agree to it.
